Know DICOM Providers

Hi,

this is a script I wrote a while ago for this situation:

-- This script, when run from 
-- [lua] 
-- association=dofile('ChangeReturnIPAddress.lua')
-- will update the return adress for each AE to match the called 
-- address i.e., this will allow devices without fixed IP adress to
-- c-move images to them.


--[[ Test code; r-click evaluate in console after project-run:
Association.ConnectedIP = '5.5.5.5'
Association.Calling = 'RTDICOM01'
dofile('ChangeReturnIPAddress.lua')
for i=0,10 do
  print('AE', i, get_amap(i))
end
]]


local i
for i=0,100 do
  local AE,IP,P,C = get_amap(i)
  if AE==nil then break end
  print('testing AEs', i, AE, IP, P, C)
  if Association.Calling==AE and Association.ConnectedIP~=IP then
    print('changing AE to:', i, AE, Association.ConnectedIP, P, C)
    servercommand('put_amap:'..i..','..AE..','..Association.ConnectedIP..','..P..','..C)
  end
end

ChangeReturnIPAddress.lua

Activate it by putting it is the server folder and editing dicom.ini, adding the following lines at the end:

[lua]
association=dofile('ChangeReturnIPAddress.lua')

Hi Marcel

That's a nice script indeed! Is there a possibility to run the script not every minute? Maybe once a day or once every hour would be enough. Otherwise it would generate big and unclear logs.

If it runs every minute with my project that would mean a serverstatus.log of 20MB a day.

Have a good day!

Hi Manny,

It has to be run on every association, as that is where the IP adress comes from. Because you have enabled keepalive I guess you get the once a minute behavior.

If you block out line 23 it will only report when an actual change is made.

Thanks for the fast reply!

Shame on me... the keepalive thing...

But good to know how to block out anyway.

Cheers,

Manny
